PTFE is generally utilized as the form of composites with adding various fillers. The purpose of this paper lies on clarifying the friction and wear properties of the PTFE coating layer on steel. Especially, the effects of PTFE powder size for coating and surface roughness of the counter material on the properties are investigated. Sliding friction and wear tests are conducted at several sliding speeds by employing two types of PTFE coating layer using different powder sizes. One type of coating layer is composed of uniform fine powder, whereas the other type is made up of mixture powder of different sizes. As results, it is found that PTFE coating layer are effective to improve the wear resistance and to reduce the friction coefficient. It is clear that PTFE coating layers are abrasively removed by asperities of the counter material during sliding contact. However, PTFE coating layer with uniform fine powder shows somewhat better wear resistance than that with mixture powder of different sizes in low sliding speed region. It can be seen that the wear of the coating layer are drastically reduced because wear fragment from counter material are transferred to the coating layer. On the other hand, friction coefficient is shown not to be directly related with PTFE powder size in coating layer.

Carbon cloth was impregnated into PTFE emulsion. PTFE is a fluoropolymer used as a coating material in various fields due to its hydrophobicity and excellent mechanical properties. In this study, PTFE emulsion was prepared different particle size of 5~500 nm and $3{\sim}5{\mu}m$. FE-SEM and FT-IR spectroscopy were used microscopic observation and investigation of chemical structure change after PTFE coating. Mass variations, gas permeability and water contact angles were analyzed to determine a GDL performance of PTFE coated carbon cloth. PTFE coated carbon cloth show different mass increase according as PTFE concentration and the number of coating times. Water contact angle of PTFE coated carbon cloth was not effected by size of PTFE particle and the number of coating time; meanwhile, gas permeability was rapidly changed at carbon cloth coated by emulsion with size of $3{\sim}5{\mu}m$ PTFE particle.

The lubricational characteristics about friction wear has an effect on the material quality of surface. In this paper, we studied the lubricational characteristics through the surface modification experiment by spray coating the surface with $MoS_{2}$ and PTFE solid lubricants. In the case of $MoS_{2}$ and PTFE coating, the friction coefficient of Journal is lower than that for noncoating so the friction characteristics is excellent. In particular, the beginning characteristics of $MoS_{2}$ coating is excellent, and in the case of PTFE coating, seizure dose not appear seizure. $MoS_{2}$ and PTFE coating are excellent in the extreme pressure at high load. The wear characteristics is excellent in the following order; PTFE < $MoS_{2}$ < Non Coating. For Non coating, seizure appears at the beginning due to the heat, but in the case of $MoS_{2}$ and PTFE coating, it will have the excellent heat stability even at high temperature.

Micro/nano tribological characteristics of PTFE coating films were experimentally studied. PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) modified polyethylene and low molecular weight PTFE were used as a coating materials. These films were deposited on Si-wafer (100) by IBAD (ion beam assisted deposition) method. The Ar ion beam sputtering was performed to change the surface topography of films using a hollow cathode ion gun under different Ar ion dose conditions in a vacuum chamber. Micro/nano tribological characteristics, water wetting angles and roughness were measured with a micro tribotester, SPM (scanning probe microscope), contact anglemeter and profilometer, respectively. The durability of the films were measured with macro tribotester. Results showed that the PTFE coating surfaces were converted to hydrophobic. The water contact angle of coated surfaces and surface roughness increased with the coating thickness. Adhesion and friction in micro and nano scale were governed by magnitude of normal load in soft material such as PTFE films. As the increase of sputtering time on low molecular weight PTFE films, the surface roughness was increased and nano adhesion and friction were decreased. The nano tribological characteristics of surfaces are mainly improved by chemical modification such as PTFE coating and given a synergy effect by the physical modification such as topographic modification.

Efficiency of a fuel cell is determined by the generated water. If water is not removed sufficiently, water will be accumulated at GDL, which causes flooding. Therefore, water control is regarded as a crucial factor to sustain fuel ell performance. In this study, PTFE coating on the surface of carbon paper was carried out to establish optimum process for hydrophobic treatment of GDL. Carbon paper was immersed at different concentrations of nano-sized PTFE coating solution. Their characteristics were analyzed systematically by FE-SEM, water contact angle, cyclic voltamogam, XRD and FT-IR. The quantitative correlation between the amount of coated-PTFE on a carbon paper and concentration of coating solution was carefully investigated. It is suggested that the amount of PTFE-coating on a carbon paper can be managed by means of controling concentration of coating solution.

보일러 및 압력 용기용 강판으로 사용되는 SB410은 고 항복 강도 및 좋은 용접성의 특성을 가진 재질로서 주로 고압력, 내열성 및 내식성이 필요한 석유플랜트, 액화물 저장 탱크, 화력 발전 보일러 등의 제조에 주로 사용되어지는 탄소 강재이다. 그러나, 최근에는 조선소, 해양 플랜트, 석유화학 플랜트 등 사용환경에 따른 관련 분야에서의 내식성 요구치가 높아지고 있다. 이와 관련하여 현재 보편적으로 사용되어지는 Marin paint coating을 적용한 SB410 강재의 경우에도 사용환경의 가혹화가 증가됨에 따라 요구되는 내식성에 비하여 불량 현상이 증가하는 추세이며 해당 분야에서 본 재질의 표면처리 개선에 대한 연구 개발이 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 Teflon(PTFE) synthetic coating solution을 이용한 SB410 소재 상의 표면처리 공정 최적화를 수행하였으며, 상기 표면처리에 대한 내식성을 검토하기 위하여 Marin paint coating sample, Teflon(PTFE) synthetic coating sample들에 대한 갈바닉 부식 분석 비교를 통하여 내식성에 대한 비교 검증을 수행하였다.

효율적 비혈관용 약물방출 스텐트 제조를 위해 풀루란 아세테이트(pullulan acetate, PA)가 테프론(poly-tetrafluorethylene; PTFE)으로 피막된 스텐트(PTFE-stent)의 코팅재료로 연구되었다. 파크리탁셀 함유 PA가 코팅된 PTFE-stent의 표면, 약물 방출 거동, 세포독성이 측정되었으며, 동물실험을 통해 이의 가능성이 검토되었다. 전자현미경으로 표면을 관찰한 결과 표면이 PTFE 피막에 비해 훨씬 매끄러웠고, 약물은 80일 동안 서방적 방출 거동을 보였다. PA와 함께 코팅된 파크리탁셀의 안정성을 annexin V 결합 염색법을 통하여 측정한 결과 apoptosis의 비율이 천연 파크리탁셀과 유사한 것으로 보아 봉입된 파크리탁셀의 변성이 없음을 알 수 있었다. 소동물 실험에서는 파크리탁셀이 봉입된 PA-PTFE가 고형암의 성장을 억제하였다. 위의 결과로 보아 PA는 효율적 비혈관계 약물방출 스텐트 개발에 매우 유용한 물질이라고 기대된다.

The severe corrosion environment makes the steel product lifecycle short while Cu-alloys with anti-corrosion characteristic used in sea water are too expensive. This study shows that the Cu-alloy(Cu-37.25% Zn-0.67%Al) used in sea water environment can be superseded by SS400 with various coating process, evaluating electrochemical characteristics. Three coating processes were applied to SS400 such as PTFE + Zn coaing, Zn + PTFE coating and only Zn electrogalvanizing coaing. Various electrochemical experiments such as open circuit potential measurments, potentiodynamic polarization tests and analyses of Tafel constants. Mechanical properties were also measured by tensile test and hardness tests. As a result, Zn + PTFE coating for SS400 steel presented the excellent anti-corrosion characteristic in sea water.

Electroless Ni-P coating is widely used for chemical, electronic, and semiconductor equipment parts because of its corrosion resistance. The incorporation of chemically-inert PTFE particles into the Ni-P films improves properties such as, non-stick, anti-adhesive and better corrosion resistance. However, soft PTFE particles degrade the hardness, wear and abrasion resistance. In this study, effects of PTFE and W addition to the Ni-P-coatings were compared by the XRD, SEM, sheet resistance, contact angle, and microhardness measurements. The change in sheet resistance was negligible, but contact angle was doubled by the addition of PTFE and W. The microhardness was lower for Ni-P-PTFE, but higher for Ni-P-PTFE-W coatings, compared to that of Ni-P coatings.
